Based on the diffusion-of-innovation theory and the information systems success model, we develop a theoretical framework using three dimensions of Fintech: innovation, financial services, and information technology (IT). This study then explicates the complex nNar relationships among these three dimensions in the form of the conjunction, equifinality, and asymmetry of Fintech attributes to develop a better understanding of its use. This study provides specific configurations of these interactions among seven Fintech attributes based on four Fintech types (mobile payments, mobile remittance, peer-to-peer (P2P) lending, and crowdfunding).

We collected 92,621 microblogs on COVID-19 from Sina Weibo with 501,930 sharing users for hypothesis testing. We leveraged a machine learning method in combination with the vector autoregression model to test our research model. Our results indicate that users with high levels of neuroticism, openness, and agreeableness are more likely to share immediately upon seeing microblogs with negative emotions, while those high in conscientiousness usually share after some time. This study highlights the contingent role of personality traits in the relationship between emotions expressed in microblogs and users’ act of sharing. The dynamic effects (both short-term and long-term) on sharing of emotions in microblogs are contingent upon personality traits. The results help us to understand who shares microblogs, how and why they behave when facing emotional content during EID outbreaks.
